<br />
<br /> CABARRUS COUNTY
<br /> TECHNOLOGY APPROPRIATE USE POLICY
<br />
<br />PURPOSE~ This policy covers the use of all technology resources belonging to
<br />Cabarrus County, whether individually controlled or shared, stand alone or
<br />networked. It includes, but is not limited to pagers, radios, all computer
<br />systems of any size and function and their attached peripherals, telephones,
<br />cellular phones, faxes, voice mail systems, e-mail systems, network resources
<br />and Internet resources. All technology resources owned by Cabarrus County
<br />are in place to enable the County to provide its services in a timely and
<br />efficient manner. This is the primary function of these resources and any
<br />activity or action that interferes with this purpose is prohibited. Ethical
<br />and legal standards that apply to information technology resources derive
<br />directly from standards of common sense and common courtesy that apply to the
<br />use of any shared resource. Because technology systems are constantly
<br />evolving, Cabarrus County requires its employees to use a common sense
<br />approach to the rules set forth below, complying not only with the letter,
<br />but also the spirit, of this policy.
<br />
<br />POLICY:
<br />Information Access and Ownership: All technology resources and all
<br />information transmitted by, received from, or stored on Cabarrus County
<br />systems are the property of Cabarrus County and as such, are subject to
<br />inspection by County officials. The County reserves the right for business
<br />purposes to retrieve, review, analyze, and monitor the information on all
<br />systems, including voice mail, electronic mail, and information stored on
<br />computer systems or media, without advance notice. This might include, but
<br />is not limited to, investigating theft, unauthorized disclosure of
<br />confidential business or proprietary information, personal abuse of the
<br />system, or monitoring workflow and productivity.
<br />
<br />Anytime information is transmitted through electronic media, there is the
<br />possibility that it could be intercepted. Therefore, careful consideration
<br />should be given, and caution ex~rcised when transmitting confidential
<br />information. At no time is any County confidential information to be
<br />electronically transmitted or otherwise conveyed to any entity outside of
<br />County Jurisdiction without the consent of the designated security officer.
<br />If you are uncertain whether information is confidential, err on the side of
<br />caution and obtain the approval of your supervisor or manager before
<br />transmitting.
